Our Story

After years of watching his wife create spreadsheets and graphs of student data, Matt offered to help Jaime by coding a program to run some of the data for her in the spring of 2013. As the fall approached, Jaime anticipated using the newly built program to assist her team with analyzing their classroom and school-wide data. These conversations led to Jaime asking Matt to add some more features to better assist problem-solving decisions. Jaime began discussing the potential use of this program at the district-level and began consulting with her team of administrators, specialists and teachers.

The intention behind the initial program was to create an application as a favor, which quickly became something more than the couple anticipated. With the focus being the program “needs to be easy for teachers to use,” the use of the program came up in discussion with other local districts in southern Wisconsin. These colleagues urged Jaime to market the product and offered to pilot it in their districts. Word began spreading about the intuitive design and application to real-life educators. As more districts realized the benefits of this program to improve their use of data in instruction and educational decisions, Jaime and Matt were eager to continue its development. Today, users are “amazed” with the features of eduCLIMBER. eduCLIMBER is constantly and continuously evolving as Jaime, Matt, and their team work closely with educators and administrators to develop an innovative solution to the various data at districts' fingertips.
